The Record

Timothy Hobert lives in Stockton but spends about four months a year in Cambridge, Mass., just down the street from where the suspects apparently lived.

Hobert, who earlier this week ran the Boston Marathon but was already in Cambridge when the explosions occurred, told Record reporter Jo Ann Kirby he could not stop thinking about what was occurring on the very street he has grown to know and love. On Friday, he watched media coverage reporting the Norfolk Street was on lockdown.

“I pass his place every day I’m there. It’s this little dinky street, Norfolk Street. I can’t believe that of all the places in Boston, that monster lives on my street,” Hobert said.
